Black Friday 2018 will begin in a few short hours as the most popular Black Friday deals from Amazon’s 10-page ad, Best Buy’s 52-page ad, Target’s 47-page ad and Walmart’s 32-page ad go live. There are so many deals this can be overwhelming. So it is now time to break out the very best Black Friday deals while warning you away from the worst. Here are Black Friday 2018’s winners and losers...

If you’re interested in one of the products listed below then this is the best Black Friday deal available for it and it’s the one you should buy. Deals are grouped by retailer and deals are/will go live at each product link.

Kohl’s -Amazon Echo Dot 3rd Generation for $24 (save $25.99) - Buy Deal Now - Same price as Amazon. When all else is equal, I recommend buying from the source.

Target - Polaroid 32-inch LED TV for $79.99 (save $50) - Buy Deal Now - The brand is suspect, but the price is solid

Sony PS4 Slim 1TB Spider-Man Bundle is best bought at Kohl's

Sony

Treat With Caution

Black Friday is as famous for dodgy deals as great discounts and it can be easy be duped by misleading savings or a fire sale on a bad product. Every one of these deals is highly promoted by the store, but every deal can be found cheaper elsewhere.

Amazon - Purchase Nintendo Switch for $299.99 and receive Mario Kart 8 Deluxe as a full game download code in-box at no additional cost, a $59.99 value - Buy Deal Now - GameStop is offering a free $50 gift card with the same bundle

Amazon - Save $100 on an Xbox One S - Buy Deal Now - Kohl’s matches the price and offers free Kohl’s Cash for its Xbox One S deal

As for Amazon (dedicated store guide), it runs hot on its own products and has fewer headline deals on other products, but remember to watch for its traditional ‘Lightning Deals’. The biggest let down from the major retailers is Target (dedicated store guide) which has done very little to stand out this year.
